Wise Small People.

Small Jamie was at his. ~devotions
one royal winters morning. Now it
happened that a great hill sloped just
past the window near which our little
worshipper was fkneeling, and honesty
'compels me to acknowledge that one of
-Jamie's eyes was intent on temporal
things, while the other was piously
given up to those of spiritual i'm
port. Midway in the petition Jamie's
temporal eye spied a PROSTATE figure
coming jubilantly down hill. It was
too much for the small mans piety.
The spiritual eye flew open wide, and
Jamie darted to the window, and with
an excited 4'Who-oo-p" then dropped

A New Work for Women.

It has been found that the sense of
delicacy which naturally causes women
to shrink from the ordeal of a medical
examination by a strange physician
has served to deter many of the sex
from applying for life-insurance.
Accordingly, an enterprising Philadel-
phia company has just appointed as
lady medical examiners at its home
Office DR.. Anna Bromall and DR.. Clara
Marshall of the Philadelphia Women's
Medical College. Similar appoint
ments will no doubt be made in all the
large centres where il does business,
and the example thus set is quite sure
to be initiated by the company's bust
ness rivals. Thus has another avenue
been opened for the employment of
women in a pleasant as well as in a
profitable way.

After Marriage.

the following sensible suggestions,
which deserve more than a mere pass

Look at a young unmarried lady
expecting her future husband; see how
carefully she dresses, how particular
she is about her hair, finger nails and
attire. Her lover thinks her beautiful;
SO she is, so long as she. is neatly
dressed. Now follow her after marriage.
Is this ~slovenly creature the same pretty

is not to be a slave of fashion. The
love of beauty and refinement belongs
to every true woman." S8 5sSSt ssa ISM gs
A mans love for his wife will soon
die, if he must be ashamed of her.
Love of ease and care]essness should
not tempt her to risk tho loss of that
which is dearer to her than life. A
woman's whole being is merely a bun
die of affections. To love and be loved
is her lifes mission and makes out the
sum of her happiness.
This same fact, however, places a
similar duty upon the husband. Selfish
ness and happiness neverdwell together
and true happiness is only found in the
effort to make others happy. A wife
cannot be happy unless she loves her
husband. the husband not, unless he
loves his wife. Will you risk to chill
your wife's affections, murder her very
soul and destroy her happiness by the
gross neglect so often practicedp Can
you expect your helpmate to continue
to love, when her tender ~sensibilities
are offended; when she must turn her
face to escape your breath, disgustingly
tainted with the fumes of bad
whiskey and the sickening .ordor of
tobacco? Did you ever offend her<thus

warm in the apartments, and the stock

her smooth skin underneath was i'm

Some Favored Birds,

3 ..-E "a q. t[N&r-zGE ~ 81 &+EEEEE-ZEEa Pc r.
Some birds owe q large debt of graft
tude to popular prejudice, which has
gone all in their favor; others, on the
contrary, have been from time immena-
orial so evily spoken of and so persist
emily prosecuted that it is a wonder that
their species still survives. First among
the former class is, of course, the robin.
We do not altogether agree with the
author when he says: 1.-The respect
with which the robin is regarded
throughout Europe is probably due to
its color" Surely the fact that he is
the tamest and the most sociable of a..
wild birds counts for something in the
affection which he engenders, though it
may be argued that his tameness is
simply the hereditary. consequence of
the good treatment he has. received
We are sorry to say that this good treat
ment by no means extends throughout
Europe. In Italy robins may be seen
hanging up for sale in the poulterers'
shops with all the other little feathered
victims. The only bird that is looked
upon as anyway sacred in Italy is, so
far as we know, the swallow, which is
dedicated to the Madonna. In general
sacred birds will be found to have two
sets of legends-one of great antiquity,
the other of Christian origin. The lat
ter set represent them as having rem
dered some service to our Savior on the
way to Calvary OF on tho cross. By the
earlier legends they are distinguished
as me-bearers, and hence are sacred to
the god Donar. In their connection
with fire was seen the cause of the
robins red breast and the woodpecker's
red head. ~ It seems singular that
among the rewards promised to the
robin in a Breton story, +sblue as
heaven shall be thy EGGS" as everyone
knows that the birds eggs are not blue

sian.
